Call-prep brief · checked 2026-07-18

BHTRANS (Belo Horizonte supplementary network)

Grade F · 34.1 / 100

First check for this agency, so there is no trend yet.

For this call: lead with the grade and the three fixes below, then confirm the feed is current and the rider information is complete. Each fix is framed as a next step, not a failure.

What changed since the last check

No category changes since the last check.

Top three things to fix

  1. Re-export the feed with a calendar that reaches further out, and set feed_info feed_end_date past your next service change.

    Service data ended 930 day(s) ago. When the calendar runs out, trip planners stop showing this agency even though the buses are still running. Riders are told the service does not exist.

    Effort: Usually one export setting; export on a schedule so it never lapses again.

  2. Review the rule documentation for 'trip_distance_exceeds_shape_distance' at https://gtfs-validator.mobilitydata.org/rules.html and check the flagged rows in your feed.

    Trip distance exceeds shape distance (flagged by the MobilityData validator). See the linked rule for what this affects.

    Effort: Varies.

  3. Set wheelchair_boarding to 1 (accessible) or 2 (not accessible) for every stop. A field survey can start with the busiest stops.

    9603 of 9761 stops don't say whether a wheelchair user can board there. Riders who use wheelchairs can't plan a trip when accessibility is marked 'unknown'; apps show no information at all.

    Effort: A column in stops.txt; your scheduling software likely has it.
